Ok, you didn't mention which operating system you have.  If it is Win 98 or
ME, this fix will work.

Here are the instructions.  They recommend backing up the JFW internet
Explorer5-6.jcf file first.

NOTE: These steps assume that you have installed JAWS in the default folder,
C:\JAWS50.

1. Press WINDOWS Key+R.
2. Type "notepad \JAWS50\Settings\ENU\Internet Explorer 5-6.jcf" and press
ENTER to open the file Internet Explorer 5-6.jcf in Notepad.
3. Press the Find command, f3, type "OSM" without the quotes and press ENTER.
4. Press ESC to close the Find dialog box. Press END and then press ENTER to
create a blank line under the [OSM] section heading.
5. Type "IgnoreTransparentSpaces=1" exactly as shown, but without the quotes.
6. Press ALT+F then S, to save your changes. Press ALT+F4 to quit Notepad.
7. Quit and then restart JAWS. When you start Internet Explorer, JAWS will
read combo boxes correctly.
